Twas the night bfore the Election And in every house
The people were shouting Keep Obama in the White House!!
*
He helped us when the economy tanked and we were in despair
The Bushes were laughing and didn't give a care
*
Wall Street was pampered while Main Street was dead
Visions of homes, jobs and auto workers were all ripped to shreds
*
People bought homes that were part of a trap
And now were losing them in a mortgage security gap
*
The first Presidential debate was full of Romney chatter
The President seemed quiet, but that didn't matter
*
The mendacity of Mitt-Twit was salacious and brash
Cause he was not for WE THE PEOPLE, just partisan cash
*
The anger of the people was beginning to grow
Cause his on-camera "caring" was all just for show
*
And what to our wondering eyes did appear
But the puppet master strings so blatant and clear
*
And a conniver named Rove so sneaky and slick
That he, the Kochs and Bushes had tried every underhanded trick
*
They tried to stop votes with bogus I.D. scams to reduce the amout,
They own vote counting machines so they can miscount
*
They lied in Wisconsin, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania
The media, newspapers, television all carried Romneymania
*
And he said he'd cut out the 47% and make sure they didn't get one red cent
Romneysia is a recurring condition; he lies about lying, with no truth admission
*
He'd cancel FEMA, PBS, Big Bird, Medicaid & Obamacare
Let the the Elders eat vouchers; what does he care?
*
He'll send all the jobs to cheap Chinese & Latin Americans for hire
You think unemployment's high now, he'll make it even higher!
*
He's torn down more companies than he's ever built
He's run businesses into the ground without any guilt
*
He's running on a record he never attained
The UAW is suing him for outrageous profits he obtained
*
More rapid than eagles Obama's forces they came
He counterd aend shouted and made Romney/Ryan look lame
*
Now Michelle! Now Hillary! Now Eric! Now Clinton!!
On Nutter! On Jesse! On Kerry! on Colin and too many to mention
*
To the top of world respect! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away, rep-ughblican delays, job blockages and all!
*
As dry leaves before hurricane Sandy did fly
He and Chris Christie and took to the Jersey sky
*
So over the submerged houses with FEMA they flew
And he made sure Jersey & New York had aid that day before he was through
*
And there in a twinkling we all saw the proof
Romney/Ryan was fallacy - Obama/Biden is truth!!!
*
As the independents vacillated and waited around
Obama's leadership in education, health & foreign affairs still abound
*
He's clothed in vision & purpose from his head to his foot
He's brought the soldiers home and our jobs back to boot!
*
A bundle of aid for Americans he did not hold back
Like the leader he is, he protects us from lack & attack
*
His eyes, how they twinkle, his smile reassuring
His vision is keen, is strength so alluring
*
He has a strong friendly smile at least a mile wide
He looks you in the eye - he has nothing to hide
*
He has a mellow way of talking He makes you feel calm
He takes responsiblity; protects the country from harm
*
He looks out for women, disenfranchised, the middle class and the poor
He's done more in two years than most have done in four
*
He's taken lemons and given us lemonade
He takes responsibility and isn't afraid
*
When he speaks his words, you know it will work
To not vote for Obama, you'd have to be a jerk
*
He's for All Americans, not just for those
The rich, right wing rep-ugh-blicans chose
*
So as we get up to slay the ones who don't give a whistle
Just remember to vote Nov.6, because this will
*
Be the most important thing you do
When you cast your vote for the country
& WE, THE PEOPLE -
that's YOU!!
*
So let me exclaim before you turn out the light
Re-Elect Barack Obama by Tomorrow Night
*
STAY BLESSED &
ECLECTICALLY AMERICAN
